Jan 20, 2009 Pours dark brown, almost black, with minimal brown head that fades. Aroma is sweet/malty and some raisins. Taste is dark roast coffee, chocolate, caramel, nutty, and some hops bitterness in the finish. Coffee and hops bitterness linger for awhile. Texture is a bit watery and fizzy, but overall a pretty good porter.

Mar 19, 2009 pours a very dark opaque brown with a light mocha head...dissipates quickly but returns with agitation. aroma is roasty and malty with espresso and bitter chocolate and a touch of hoppiness. flavor is hoppier than expected and has faint espresso and bakers chocolate and burnt caramel. nice creamy mouthfeel and a lingering finish that tastes burnt.

Jul 14, 2008 #504 (Eddie Murray) Aggressively sedimented at the bottom of the bottle, and perhaps consequently more thick and stouty than you expect with a Porter. Maybe more like a Great Lakes Eddie Fitz. I’d have to re-try to be sure I didn’t get an off bottle.

Sep 17, 2007 4 ounce sample on tap at California Brewer’s Festival. Metallic, hoppy, grapefruity aroma with roasted, burnt, choco-coffee notes present. Quite metallic. Quite hoppy. Mostly opaque dark brown/black body with an orangey-tan head that is frothy. Black, burnt, roasted, malty notes to start. A bit of tobacco and leather is also present. Finishes with some bitter grapefruity hoppiness. A very hoppy porter...too much so for my tastes.
